Dead Girls, Dead Boys, Dead Things Series by Richard Calder

Nanoengineers have unleashed machine consciousness. Revenge does not account for it: Something infinitely more sinister has happened. Only Primavera and mad Ignatz Zwakh know what power is really behind the microbiotic army dedicated to overthrowing the human gamete. But Primavera's dying. Can they reach Dr. Toxicopholous before the CIA or the pornocrat Kito or their combined assassins and nanomachines reach them?

Ignatz Zwakh lives in a strange world. Dead Girls, the genetically recombined doll-girls designed by Dr. Tocixophilous, have now mated with humans to form a new subspecies. Meta, the parasitic cyborgs who resulted, have carried the new genus into space. Mars has been colonized and in its most decadent city, Paris, marauding Elohim strive to execute the traitorous Dead Girls. Bangkok swelters from its sex bars to its alleyways with the strange sexuality the future has brought... moreIgnatz Zwakh lives in a strange world. Dead Girls, the genetically recombined doll-girls designed by Dr. Tocixophilous, have now mated with humans to form a new subspecies. Meta, the parasitic cyborgs who resulted, have carried the new genus into space. Mars has been colonized and in its most decadent city, Paris, marauding Elohim strive to execute the traitorous Dead Girls. Bangkok swelters from its sex bars to its alleyways with the strange sexuality the future has brought. The future has begun to invade the past and reality shifts and shimmers as the Meta wage their war. Ignatz Zwakh is a very strange man in a very strange world. less

Having completed his trip around the universe, Dagon (also know as Ignatz Zwakh) returns to Earth to plant a Reality Bomb that will wipe out the plague of Meta (which turns teenage girls into Dead Girls). Unfortunately, Dagon himself has set loose forces that are collapsing both time and space upon itself, turning his simple mission into a fun-house-mirrored tour through identity, reality, and undying love.

This extraordinary trilogy depicts a future gender war that crosses the boundaries of software, wetware, time, and reality itself in its imaginative leaps and bounds. Only love holds the future together in this tale of star-crossed teens whose transformations defy description or imagination.To read this trilogy is to behold a strange new world, one unlike any other.

The illegal immigrants of 2025 are not Third World emigrants - they're coming from cyberspace. Downloaded eidolons walk the streets as holograms by day, and at night they grow corporeal. These "ghosts" are growing more human and more real than the world that spawned them...and now they're looking to alter reality in order to accommodate their needs. Young Dahlia Chan, star of such chop-socky masterpieces as Kung Fu Nymphet from Hell, is becoming the most important ghost of all... moreThe illegal immigrants of 2025 are not Third World emigrants - they're coming from cyberspace.

Young Dahlia Chan, star of such chop-socky masterpieces as Kung Fu Nymphet from Hell, is becoming the most important ghost of all. She is a copy divorced from its original, and she's growing more powerful. A thief named Mosquito has been hired by Madame Kito (one of Bangkok's powerful pornocrats) to steal Dahlia and neutralize the threat of the ghosts. But Mosquito recognizes something of himself in Dahlia, and kidnapping her may be just the start of something bigger ... less
